More On Outerlimits SV-52 Quad Diesel V-bottom
Here's little more detail on the new Outerlimits I mentioned in last week's blog on the company's engine program, http://www.boats.com/boat-content/20...a-closer-look/.
Only one photo with this piece—of the engine installation. Wish more were available. I'm sure they will be.

Two engines in tandem never works as well as independant engines, they fight each other ever so slightly. It not like these are 6-71's in a LCM, they had 2 and 4 engines into common shaft configurations.
Also, lesson from Buzzi if you have 4 engines and one breaks you still have 3 props to run the boat with all at full speed, the boat will still run like hell.
